Cliff Racer posted:I'd laugh if they really do take a Journey to the West character. Anyways I found whats her name's eeking and ooohing while being carried around to be hilarious this episode. Other than that, "Ghost please be good" is sounding like a more desperate plea than ever now. I was okay with the first episode but hope that we get an outright good one from episode 3. Oh geez... um. Not sure how to tell you this. I haven't been able to watch Ghost yet, but I'm hype to give it a try and I can't wait to see which Eyecons get forms in the show proper.

Burkion posted:I do wonder what sets Ultraman apart as a franchise from Kamen Rider and Super Sentai- Kamen Rider has, in the past, attempted similar things to what Ultraman has done but it's never really stuck. It's hard to say. Personally, I got into Kamen Rider because I was really enjoying Gokaiger and wanted more Toku in my life and there wasn't a currently running Ultraman series at the time. (Or at least it wasn't being subbed by OT so I didn't know.) It is definitely weird how incredibly popular it is and yet also relatively ignored among western Toku fan groups. I've wanted to try some Ultraman in the past, and I probably will watch Mebius or Ginga (not to enjoy it but to watch it straight through to X because I like doing things in order) once I have a little more free time.

Acne Rain posted:My own suspicion is that the show will get interesting when around episode 20 to 30 ghost gets all the eyecons, but gramps does a heel turn. I agree with your theory. There's no way the Sage is just going around resurrecting and giving people super powers with nothing to gain from it. It'll help once we find out how the other two riders got their powers, I wouldn't be surprised if they're all coming from Sage. Perhaps Sinister Man and Poor Dental Hygiene Crony are responsible for Necrom, since his name sounds more evil, but that one's a long way off.

I'm closing in on the end of Agito myself, just 4 episodes away, and I've really enjoyed it so far. The story's been pretty interesting and engaging throughout, it actually did Amnesia pretty well and satisfyingly in my opinion, and it's had some of the best civilian scenes. Nobody's Ichijou level, of course, but Ozawa and Hojo are great and I love all the eating and talking scenes. Compared to modern riders where episodes can sometimes be too packed with fights and gags to slow down like that, it's pretty refreshing to have as much or more drama than punchy fights. The scenes with Kaoru Kino and his death without fanfare or funeral scenes or declarations of vengeance or anything were unexpected for me, but I liked them too. I agree with its fight issues though. The majority of them end super abruptly. Maybe they should have sprung for longer songs to time the finishers to. DEEP BREATH! Cipher Pol 9 fucked around with this message at 02:55 on Oct 28, 2015 |

"Akiko is funny and I like when she hits Shotaro with the slipper." - my little brother, a member of the target audience That said, I genuinely like Akiko, especially in her interactions with Ryu in the Accel movie. She's cute and funny and makes some fantastic faces, and she owns in the dream episode. I would've liked her to become a bit more Chief-like, but she's cool whenever she takes initiative and I still liked her plenty.

I loved ToQger and enjoy Ninninger, but man that robot had better have a neat gimmick to make up for the underwhelming design. I'm not entirely opposed to cubes and the Minecraft style, it just seems pretty plain from the views we have so far. The suits I mostly like, but I agree that the animal faces are way too graphic-tee quality. I'd have preferred something more stylized.

There are very few suits I dislike, but I think GoBusters were definitely my favorite. Just stylish as gently caress, and super different than what had come before.

jivjov posted:Ninninger has just really been a wet fart of a season for me. We're, what, 2 or 3 episodes from the end and it FINALLY feels like plot has been happening for the last handful. Yeah. I'm a diehard Sentai apologist for even the lamest seasons and it drives me crazy how far in we are and how little has happened. I think Ghost starting and getting so drat good in the second half of its mere 13 episodes has really made that stand out.

DICKS FOR DINNER posted:Even as someone who kind of enjoyed Wizard (don't ask me why, I'm not sure either): don't watch Wizard, it's bad in an objective sense. Also, if you're going to watch Agito, watch Kuuga first because A.) they're sort of connected and B.) Kuuga is the best. Seconding this. Kuuga and Agito together are just a fantastic run, highly recommended. Double and Fourze are my favorites because I'm a kid at heart, but these two are really special.

I ordered a Super Best Double Driver shortly after finishing the series as well, and it was actually more expensive back then than it is now. It was just something I had to own, it's too loving cool. I also took it further and cosplayed Shotaro... So, uh, at least you're still at "merch" level?

Nah, I've never been to NYC. I've run into a few Shotaros and one Philip in the handful of Cons I've been to though, it always makes me happy to see someone cosplaying a Rider or a non-Zyuranger Sentai. (Nothing wrong with Zyuranger, it's just super common.) EDIT: Also Fang is sold separately so unless you sprung for that, Sonic is gonna be locked out.

After a long and busy move I finally caught up on weekly episodes, which means I'm now delving into old movies I've missed, starting with the Gaim Soccer movie. That was pretty silly, but man I forgot from the opening song previews that the long-promised Gaim Horse Battle was hidden away in there. Also, I think the "Kyu" in "Kyuranger" comes from the "Kyu" in "Chikyu," Earth. I don't think that Kyu is in the other planet names, but it'd make sense enough for a Sentai series.

Cricken_Nigfops posted:Old toku is the best Toku. Forget all this Zyuoger and Exaid stuff, with their pixels and minecrafts and all that stuff, gimme old lovely practical effects and Hiroshi Miyauchi in every possible role! Never!! I won't deny how good the old stuff is, but I can't say enough good things about Zyuohger. I love that bunch of dorks. Misao started off a bit annoying but I'm really loving how he's developing, the new episode was really funny. EDIT: I also watched episode 1 of Ex-Aid! It definitely had its issues- I'll echo the bad meatball CGI monster, I don't think "Level-1" is necessary at all and I don't care for the suit or what they do with it, and the early forced slapstick + Asuna's costume change fell flat and was grating respectively. Outside those negatives, I really liked it! Emu has potential and some personality, and ExAid has style and some really great effects. Can't wait to see how they work the multiple riders angle and what the real deal is with the Bugsters. Cipher Pol 9 fucked around with this message at 14:50 on Oct 6, 2016 |

Looks like Bugster Genm uses the "Dangerous Zombie" Gashat. That's pretty great. Also yeah they're all ridiculous looking and I can't wait to see them in action. Brave's debut really sold how cool and stylized the Riders are this season, IMO. I'm also loving the humor in the series. While the slapstick tends to fall flat, some of the character moments have been great, Brave's "There's nothing I can't cut" to the apple pie in particular.

Has anyone caught the first Super Doubutsu Taisen special yet? It's only available through TVN at the moment, but I watched it on a whim and it's actually really funny. Plus the ending foreshadows an amazing second part. If anything it's worth it just for this exchange- Sela: "If there's an AkaRed, then there must be an AoBlue!" AkaRed: "No! There is no AoBlue. It's AkaBlue!" Zyuohgers: "..." Jealoushitto is great as always, though man is his suit getting rough.
